Google acquires AppSheet

Google has announced that it has acquired AppSheet, a leading no-code application development platform used by a number of enterprises across a variety of industries. This acquisition helps enterprises empower millions of citizen developers to more easily create and extend applications without the need for professional coding skills. 

With this acquisition, customers will be able to develop richer applications at scale that leverage not only Google Sheets and Forms which are already popular with customers, but other top Google technologies like Android, Maps and Google Analytics. In addition, AppSheet customers can continue to integrate with a number of cloud-hosted data sources including Salesforce, Dropbox, AWS DynamoDB and MySQL.
